GENERAL NEWS NOTES.
Vicar General Ravoux Honored.

Rev. A. Ravoux, vicar general OF the
diocese OF st. Paul, and living in st. Paul,
Mimi, has been appc inted to the churchly
position OF m monsignor or domestic prelate,
a position of much prominence in the
Catholic church. By it the bearer has
many privileges, especially in Rome, where
his position is almost equal to that OF
a bishop. Out OF Rome his position is i'm
mediately after that Of his bishop. This
honor was procured through the instru-
mentality OF Bishop Ireland.
Mgr. Ravoux, as he will now be known,
was born at Lavgrac. in Auvergne. France,
January II, 1915. His ecclesiastical stud
les We're pursued in the seninaries at Puy,
when he met Bishop Loras of Dubuque
Iowa, in 1888 and came with him to Amer
lea in September OF that year. Father Ra-
voux,s first appointment was to Prairie
du Chen, where he remained until 1S41,
when he was sent to establish mission
among the Sioux Indians in MINES ota.
He subsequently settled at Mendoza, and
was appointed vicar general in 1851.

ises to inhict one OF it's heaviest blows

granting ofspecialrates, rebates, draw
backs, or the act OF receiving by any {
greater or less compensation from on,
person than is demanded from anoth

makes unlawful; and the.third section

preference or advantage to any par
ticular person or description OF traffic
The Standard monopoly has long prof
tied by both OF the abuses prohibited
in these clauses. Treasurer Cassel O

Death Rather Than INSANITY.

Hon. Thomas c. Reynolds OF st. Louis
killed himself at the Custom House, by
falling down the elevator shalt from the
third floor, eighty feet, and crushing his
skull. The cause was mental arrangement
superinduced by hallucinations that he.
was about to become insane. He entered
the building and sauntered into the Unit
ed e States court room. He appeared in
his usual humor. He was seen to leave
the United States marshals office, and
stepping into the elevator gate passed out
OF view. A few minutes later he was
brought out OF the sub. b.basement, dead.
In his pocket was a letter to his wife,
tating that two years ago he con-
trasted malaria at Aspinwall and
had failed to recover, the disease
settling on his spine. Recently he had
been troubled by insomnia and nervous
ness. Visions invited him to join his dead
friends, and fearing lest he should be a
burden to his wife by becoming luna
tic, having twice before been troubled with
dementia, and his estate of$2OO,OOO being
in order, he determined to end his life.
Thomas c. Reynolds was born in Charles
ton, 8. c., in 1921. He studied in the Uni
verslty OF Harvard and continued his edu-
cation in Germany, graduating in Heidel-
burg in 1S42. He spent one year in the
University OF Paris, and was admitted to
the bar in Virginia in 1914. He was secre-
tary OF the United States legation to Spain
in 1916 and 1S4S. In 1850 he located
in St. Louis, and from 1853 to 1857 was
United States district attorney. In 1860
he was elected lieutenant governor OF Mis-
souri, on the same ticket with Gaib Jack
son, and in the civil war sided with the
coniederates. In 1864 he fought duel
with B. Gratz Brown at thirty feet with
rifles, over, political dispute. Mr. Brown

How Railroads are Built in the Northwest.

A special dispatch from DEVILS Lake.
Dakota, gives the following interesting
account of the mammoth railroad opera
tions westward from that place
Nothing in railroad building heretofore
in the Northwest has approached the rapid
tty and army like system with which the
Manitoba company is sending forward ma
terial for the construction OF the Montana
line. For the past three months there
have gone through this place daily, on
an average, l75 cars laden with all
sorts OF construction material.
At Mlnot, the present terminus OF the
track 1877 miles West OF Devils Lake, the
company has laid something like ten miles
OF sidings to receive this material, and
along both sides OF these numerous tracks
nre piled great quantities OF ties. bridge
material, piles and thousands of the best
quality of steel rails. Said an old rail
road contractor, after visiting Minot:
us is worth a days travel to
see these mountains OF costly ma
terial.'' And still it goes forward in in.
creasing quantities. For the past twenty
four hours the trains have averaged one in
every two hours. And it is estimated that
1t will require two hundred cars daily the
entire summer OF this material to be sent
forward that there may be no delay in the
building OF this great line OF road. All en-
sines donot wait at the terminus for the un-
loading OF trains, uthasten back for more
cars, and it is not an uncommon sight to
see tcn OF these monster iron horses on
! their return, with q single caboose car at
tached to each, speeding along the track
only a few hundred yards apart. In all
this gigantic work there is no confusion,
not an accident of any kind has occurred,
all material is separated and placed where
it can be reloaded and handled at
the minimum cost. The roadbed for
q hundred miles west OF Minot
is ready for the rails, and all bridges

Parnell Appeals to America.

Lincoln, Neb., March 29.-The following
eablegram from Mr. Parnell was received
by President Fitzgerald, OF the Irish-A Amer
lean league. to-day:
The coe1 cion bill proposed in the house
OF commons is the eighty seventh since
the act OF union, eighty-seven
years ago. It is also the most
stringent tyrannical and uncalled for by the
state OF things in Ireland. Never before has
a coercion bill been proposed when crime
was SO rapidly decreasing as compared
aimed against all open agitation, and ap-
pears to be expressly designed for driving
discomfort beneath the surface. It places
all public speakers, writer's and conductors
Of newspapers absolutely at the mercy of
stipendiary magistrates holding their
Offices at the pleasure of the crown. 1tcon-
demns the Irish-speaking peasant OF rack
rented Kerry to the tender mereies Of a pack
ed jury OF Orangemen or anti-land leaguers
or q jury OF Englishmen at the Old Bailey in
London. The Liberal party, headed by
Gladstone, stands as one man against this
measure and will fight shoulder to shoul-
der with us, in opposition to it, TO the
last. It seems impossible to believe that
even the present house Of commons will
continue to follow the Tory government in
their mad course and good judges consider
the measure will break and ruin the cabi-
net. We must. however. prepare for the
worst; and ] confidently appeal to the
American people for sympathy and sup
port which they have never withheld from
q people struggling for liberty.

proof until within the past two or three
days. Mr.. Knapp placed the matter In the
hands OF Edgar NJ. Bennett, OF the firm OF
gagged Detective Bob Major OF Ortonville toN
work up the case. The female domestic in
Mr.. knapp's house was taken into
confidence, and admitted the de

emerged from the room, and he did not de-
tect them at the act On Wednesday
evening, however, he caught them

the light Of a dark intern upon them.
Schuchartt attempted to escape, but Major
held him at the point OF revolver and
then summoned the domestic and sent her
out to bring in several neighbors to wit
ness the scene. It was a clear case, and
the guilty parties Immediately arranged to
leave the city. Mrs. Knapp begged her
paramour to not desert her, and he de-
clared that as soon as a divorce was OBJ

sanctity of a fellow Mason's home.

a loaded shotgun to his mouth, and with
